HC Deb 12 November 1945 vol 415 c1726
7. Colonel Erroll

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Burma whether it is intended to keep in full running order the all-weather trunk road from Imphal-Tamu-Kalewa constructed by the 14th Army.

The Under-Secretary of State for Burma (Mr. Arthur Henderson)

I regret that I am not yet in a position to make any statement.

Colonel Erroll

May I ask the Minister for an assurance that the necessary maintenance work will be carried on, while the Government are making up their mind?

Mr. Henderson

Obviously, I cannot answer that without its being put down on the Order Paper.
